Eldorado
Capim Cubano Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Había capim cubano
Merengue de martinica
Sombrero mexicano
Bachata de costa rica
Cumbia colombiana
Tequila, run e mescladito
Cholitas bolivianas
Bailando carnavalito
Me llamó pepe legal
(y que pasó compadre)
A conocer el dorado
(vamo-nos ya!)
Las chicas de esa ciudad
(ay caramba!)
Me dejan maravillado
Arriba, batendo palmitas
Y vamos a el doradoo




Arriba, batendo palmitas
Vamos bailar capim cubanoo
